The Bay at Savannah.

Better than the parks and drives Of
Savannah liked the place they call the
bay. If commerce had not claimed this
spot fashion must have been eager for
such a place to drive or walk in. The
esplanade is wide, and, though there is
always life and certain busy air there,
there are times when you need not be
jostled, and can look at your leisure across
the river at the country beyond, which
has the appearance of picture spread out
for your benefit. 1t seems to ha "- ,at
praise to say Of landscape that it looks
like picture. From this bluff, which is
forty or fifty feet high, the country of
woods is peculiarly attractive, lying be-
yond the water, with an Arcadian calm
contrasting sharply with the busy life
about you. Perhaps it is the absolute
contrast which makes the scene so strik-
ing. You are in the very midst of ware
houses, of buying and selling, and the din
Of a large city; there, seeming but a
hands breath away, is the solitude of the
woods and fields. You can almost see the
rabbit starting away from the copse and
escaping through the long grass; you can
smell the woodland scents. When think
of Savannah shall always think first OF
the bay. The tall warehouses below the
bluff and close against it, with feet in the
river, add striking feature to the place
it is over their roofs that you look off al
the sylvan beauty beyond the stream

Police of Paris and London.

No such thing as the maltreatment of
prisoners is permitted in the forces of the
London and Paris police. Should crowd
assemble in the street in Paris, 1t is but a
minute before the red trousered sergeant
appears on the scene. He does not flourish
a club; he is not demonstrative nor noisy.
He glides about, scarcely causing ripple
in the gathering. He quietly investigates
the origin of the difficulty, and in mo.
ment or two the matter is adjusted, and
the crowd separates without noise or fric-
ton. In the English cities, the sic int of a
policeman with a drawn club is as rare as
the appearance of blood. on the moon.
Even where there is resistance to arrest,
the truncheon is never resorted to, con-
stables depending on strength and num-
bers to accomplish their purpose. The
regulations governing the police insist
strenuously that no violence shall be used
further than is absolutely necessary to Sc
cure an arrest or queu disturbances

whitelaw Reid's PaIatial Bath Rooms.

Whitelaw Reid has long held the honor
able position of the dandy of the press.
He carries his fastidious tastes into all
the habits of life. He likes large spaces,
for he is accustomed to fill large spaces.
Accordingly he is the only editor who
lives in palace. 1t is the house which
was built by the ingenious Mr.. Henry
Willard out of money which came into his
hands through what were called blind
pools.
This wonderful house is said to contain
thirteen bath rooms, all lined with Sienna
marble, the tubs being of cream colored
porcelain. The arrangement was made
for the accommodation of the Thirteen
club, which consists of the thirteen inves-
tors in the blind pools This was deli
cate fantasy Of Mr.. Henry Willard, and
was meant to give each of the investors
an interest in the palace which is the only
monument of their folly. This wonderful
palace with the thirteen bath rooms built
Of Sienna marble, contains a drawing
room Us large as the famous east room in
the White House; the dining room is a
spacious apartment forty feet long, thirty
feet wide and twenty-five feet high.-New

New Kind of Insurance Needed.

'sThere's new kind of an insurance
association wanted, and can't see why it
wouldn't be popular" remarked gentle
man. ''and that is, society to insure the
Identification of dead bodies. That of the
young girl at Railway and of the supposed
sporting man at Andalusia are cases in
point. For q small fee a society could
agree to insure Identification. This could
be done by marks on the body or the
clothing. Sometimes things are attended
to by others when we are too careless to
attend to them ourselves. The mark
need not be a name; a number would do,
and the name could be known by refer
ring to the registered number. I'm not
just able to suggest practical plan,
though I am sure it wouldn't require
much study. The hint is worth consider
ing. "-Philadelphia Call

The Moonstone Only FeIdspar.

When you know your lucky moonstone
is simply form of feldspar, it doesn't
seem half SO lucky or nice. 1t is odd,
while these cold beaming stones receive
all this attention, nobody thinks of read
ing Wilkie Collins "Moonstone," novel
which has long since been relegated to the
oblivion of country circulating libraries
or back shelf in the garnet closet. 1
wonder if it would make my blood run
cold to read that story now? Probably
not. Yet continue to carry round lit
tie moonstone in my purse for luck like a
good many other foolish mortals who be-
ieve it is due to its presence that no light
fingered gentry have ever picked their
pockets. Only feldspar. Oh dear!-Bos-

The Statesmen of Parliament.

Mr.. Crawford, the London correspond
ent Of The New York World, says the
members of the house of commons are not
as strong looking set of men as the
members of our house of representatives.
OF the house of lords he remarks: II
have criticised the United States senate
for a number of years as a correspondent
at Washington, but after seeing the upper
house in England 1 don't think / shall
ever venture again to say one word
against the senate of the United States

ability and positive force to the fossilized
house or lords that every American has
good reason to be proud of it."-New Or

Scotland's Scientific Work.

Mr.. John Murray, of the Challenger

its size into consideration, could show a

mass of scientific literature than Scotland

The London Dog PeddIer.

There is no more familiar sight in out
door London than the dog peddler. Per-
haps it is because we are fond of English
fashions that he has got to be SO common
here. Broadway, Fifth avenue and Four
teenth and Twenty-third streets are daily
populous in the way of bargains. 1t is
hardly safe to invest in this street stock, if
you are not an expert, and expect good
and pure blood. Now and then, however,
the man who is wise in canine character
may pick up bargain. The peddlers
always begin at top price and drop. An
offer must be very low one for them to
refuse it, and if their stock is honestly
come by their profits cannot be extrava-
